Ways to add value to your home

I am currently house hacking and renting by the room and I am looking for ways to add value to the home. I've done things like upgrade electrical amp but was wondering does small ticket items like adding ceiling fans help for when I want to refinance on the property for the future? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!

    Quote from @John Chong:

    Small ticket items like ceiling fans won't add much value to the property when you refinance. If you did flooring, countertop upgrades, paint the interior/exterior, and etc that would add more value to the property. 

    These are all great answers and feedback. I appreciate you sharing your insight and experience! Thanks so much. I will be attending my first BP con this year with my dad and brother. Will any of you all be attending? I would love to meet up and connect if so!
